You can learn a lot about people when what happens when you succeed.

And if you look around and somebody's envious of your success or the critical of your success,

man, one strike them out of here.

I'm Michael Logel, founder and CEO of Crisp, the nation's number one law from growth company.

I've built my business through practice, not theory.

Crisp started with just $500 to my name and has grown to over eight figures in revenue over the last few years,

earning a spot on the Inc 500 list of the fastest growing private companies in America.

Our approach has been to take everything

we've learned about generating massive growth within our own organization and help the

country's most ambitious and committed welfare owners do the same for theirs. In each episode of this

podcast, I sit down with innovative market leaders from the legal industry and beyond to learn from

those who thrive in the face of adversity, challenge the status quo, and define

what it means to be a true game changer.

This is Jessica, head of coaching strategy at Crisp, and today we're flipping the script

for another special edition episode to get Michael's take on the key difference between being

busy and being productive, how to elevate your inner circle by surrounding

yourself with champions, not critics, and why patience and discipline are learnable skills.

If you were doing the same things that everybody else was doing, you wouldn't get any criticism.

No one will give you a hard time. Everyone's saying, look, I totally understand. On Friday nights,

we go out and get drunk, but on Saturday we paint our faces and then on Sunday, whatever.

It's just if you do that every single week, no one's going to bother you.

If you want to be able to operate at a high level, well, you're going to be different.
